LeBron James Makes Unfortunate Announcement on Monday

The Los Angeles Lakers' season came to an end last Wednesday following a Game 5 loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves. During the defeat, LeBron James suffered a Grade 2 MCL sprain after a collision with Donte DiVincenzo — an injury that typically requires a 3-to-5 week recovery period and would have sidelined him for any potential upcoming games. With the offseason now underway, James was scheduled to make a high-profile appearance on Monday night at the 2025 Met Gala in New York City, where he was named one of the event's co-chairs — a role that would have marked his first-ever appearance at the iconic fashion event during his NBA career.
